Class overview
Friendschool: Spanish for Kids classes are unique from other language programs because rather than memorizing individual words and slowly growing , students get to build and use sentences from the very start. Our beautiful student materials support learners in every class session and they quyickly gain confidence in their Spanish speaking ability.
About me
Hello, my name is Ketita Boren. I was born in Nuevo León, México. I moved to California over 30 years ago with my beautiful family and knew since the 2nd grade that I wanted to become a teacher. I have had the priviledge of teaching for over 15 years, the last 3 years I've taught online and discovered a new passion. I love sharing my mother tongue with students and am convinced that learning more than one language opens many opportunities for our children. I'm here to help children cultivate a love for the Spanish language and enthusiastically develop their language skills.
Testimonials
"Maestra Ketita had a beautiful energy about her. She had a way of making sure all kids were included. It was such a joy to experience this with our son. Every day he was looking forward to going to class. I recommend it to all parents."

"Teacher Ketita is amazing, well prepared and sweet. She delivers a very fun lesson with a variety of activities that’s never boring. She’s that teacher you’d want your kid to get every year. My kids loved the program and everything that they experienced. I have a 4 and a 7 y/o and the program fitted both perfectly – surprisingly to my delight. They enjoyed it so much that we will enroll them in the long term course. I highly recommend!"

"Learning in an outdoor “classroom” is preferable to my students. Harnessing a child’s affinity towards exploring the natural environment is a perfect way to expose one to a novel language."

"Our family has really enjoyed Friendschool's Spanish summer camp. The camp is very interactive, active, creative, and fun for everyone. I like that parents are involved in the learning process. Everyone is learning including the parents!
The games and music are so much fun, the information about various countries are opening our minds to new cultures and places.
My children are now wanting to know more Spanish!"
